What You’ll Do
- Use AI agents as integral tools for exploration, debugging, and code generation—moving fast through iterative prototyping and testing to find what works best.
- Test - build automated test pipelines and tools to ensure that AI generated outputs meet functional and performance standards.
- Design and implement core runtime components in a highly performant and secure environment.
- Collaborate across product, systems, and AI initiatives to expand runtime capabilities—enabling deeper visibility, control, and intelligence within running workloads.
- Prototype and productionize interfaces where AI systems interact safely with low-level software (e.g., introspection hooks, event streams, telemetry).
- Drive projects end-to-end: design, build, test, deploy, measure, and iterate.
- Contribute to our engineering culture of curiosity, rigor, and technical excellence.
- Work primarily in-office from our South Park / SOMA location, collaborating closely with a small, deeply technical team.
What You’ll Bring
- You have 1–5 years of software engineering experience—or you’re a strong recent graduate—ideally with exposure to systems or runtime development like compilers, instrumentation, observability, distributed systems, or optimizing performance-critical code paths
- Strong proficiency in Go and/or TypeScript, with a deep understanding of performance, concurrency, and systems fundamentals.
- Comfortable using AI and agentic systems to move fast—balancing experimentation with sound engineering judgment on when to trust the tools and when to dig in yourself.
- Experience deploying production software in cloud-native environments (Docker, Kubernetes, modern CI/CD, Terraform/Pulumi).
- Excellent collaboration and communication skills; comfortable in a fast-moving, low-ego engineering culture.
Nice to Have
- Experience with Claude Code.
- Background in observability or introspection tooling.
- Interest in how AI can enhance system visibility, security, or automation.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
- Work on cutting-edge runtime technology at the intersection of security, observability, and AI.
- Collaborate with an experienced, thoughtful team that values deep technical understanding and craftsmanship.
- A collaborative, in-person environment in the heart of San Francisco’s South Park / SOMA district.
- The opportunity to shape how modern developers build, ship, and secure software in the AI-accelerated era.
Compensation
- $100,000 – $200,000 USD / year (depending on experience and qualifications).
- Equity and benefits available.
- Non-elective 401k contributions.
